  • There's no need to bring it up.

    If the person states that they are dissatisfied with your behaviour in some way, then you can use it as a legitimate excuse.

    If you're not sure when the "right time" is, wait for your partner to bring up a relevant topic. Don't make a big deal out of it yourself.

    Personally, I don't think it would make a difference in how I feel about the person, so they should tell me whenever they're comfortable to do so.

    • I agree with you for the most part, but I'm not sure if I want to use this as an excuse. I mean, it's very comfortable to say "hey babe, sorry I treated you like crap, but I can't help it. Asperger's." I don't want to become one of these guys who uses his diagnosis to get away with stuff.
      But, I completely agree with you for the rest of your comment.
